ABSTRACT:
A cervical spine protective helmet and shoulder harness assembly. The helmet and shoulder-harness assembly includes a yoke or shoulder pad having a central opening for the wearer's head to pass therethrough. A protective helmet is pivotally supported over the central opening. Arcuate tracks allow the head of the wearer to be turned from side to side. Stops within the pivoting joints supporting the helmet limit neck flexion and extension. Stops at the ends of these tracks limit neck torsion. Neck compression is limited by the rigidity of the uprights supporting the helmet.
